Well, I done did it now. We were running in Walmart, and this black man and his daughter were trying to get one of the scooters. He had recently had knee surgery, he told me this talking, and had just left the dr where they removed the staples. As he was standing there, his knee started gushing blood. We stood there with them for a couple of minutes to make sure he was okay, then went inside. Well, the racist inside me got to worrying, and I went back to see if he was still there. He was still standing there bleeding, and told me an employee had supposedly went for bandaids. I went in and bought him some bandages and took to him, and waited while he got fixed up. I'm sure the klan will disown me now.
*I saw someone needing help, and helped. He saw someone who was legit concerned, and allowed me to help. Race was never part of the conversation, as it should be.
Gumps and gators to start. Yes they are separate races and inferior. I said it.
Problem is to some it doesn't matter as long as things are "progressing." No matter what it will never be enough. The whole idea depends on the "problem" not going away. If the problem were to go away, there would be no more need for their group to exist or be in power. Gotta keep things moving no matter forward or back.I'm confused. I agree with McDad. Are we going forward or backwards here?
I think I’d have just told those conducting the meeting to go F their white selves and gone fishing...... and find another job'Racism is not our fault but we are responsible,' one handout declared
The City of Seattle held a racially segregated employee training session aimed at White staffers and instructing them on "undoing your own whiteness" in order to be held accountable by people of color, according to documents obtained by a public records request.
The session took place on June 12, as protesters took part in the so-called "Capitol Hill Organized Protest" in the Capitol Hill district.
One handout distributed in the session reportedly declared how “racism is not our fault but we are responsible." Another said White staffers must give up “the land” and their “guaranteed physical safety” in order to be an “accomplice” for racial justice.
Christopher F. Rufo, an editor for City Journal and director of the Discovery Institute’s Center on Wealth and Poverty, said he filed a public records request regarding the training session. On Monday, he published copies of the materials distributed to employees in the session on his Twitter account.
According to his screenshots, the Office of Civil Rights hosted a two-and-a-half-hour “Training on Internalized Racial Superiority for White People.”
In the email invitation to the event, the office asked “city employees who identify as white to join this training to learn, reflect, challenge ourselves, and build skills and relationships that help us show up more fully as allies and accomplices for racial justice.”
“We’ll examine our complicity in the system of white supremacy – how we internalize and reinforce it – and begin to cultivate practices that enable us to interrupt racism in ways to be accountable to Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) folks within our community,” the email invitation said.
Seattle held 'segregated' training session on 'undoing whiteness,' encouraged staffers to forfeit 'guaranteed physical safety'
Interesting comparison..... I typically prefer to watch NASCAR instead of IRL.... BUT..... when the Nashville Super speedway had both IRL and the Busch Series..... I enjoyed the IRL much more. They were turning laps at 204 mph on the mile and a third track while the Busch cars were at 160 mph.So you're upset that IRL is better than NASCAR?
